Questions on new PC7424

I have a few questions about my new PC, the instructions did not cover it.



1. The 5" counterweight has a groove under it to align with the rubber piece and the 6" does not, I assume it is normal?



2. It came with a washer about 1/8" thick, is it to be used between the pad and PC itself?



3. What is the best way to center a 7.5" Lake Country pad? It certainly creates vibrations or would I get a 7" counterweight if that exsist?



Sorry for all the questions, thanks!
 
1) Yes, that's normal.



2) The washer goes in between the backing plate and the machine to make room for removal. I've covered this in my thread below.



3) I'm pretty sure most people just eyeball it. I try my best to center it and then give it a spin by hand to see if it's not too far off center. It doesn't have to be perfectly centered. And no, there is no 7" weight. 6" is as good as it gets. ;)

Dang, I always wondered what that was for...I didn't need it to make room for the wrench, though. :nixweiss It is a light-grey one, right? Hopefully I can find it.....I remember either throwing it away or saving it and putting it in my warranty stuff file....hope I saved it. :sosad
 
Hmm, I imagine you could probably just use a metal washer from the hardware store. It's just a spacer anyway.



Some people don't need the washer to be able to fit the wrench in there, but with some backing plates you need it because of the way it's shaped/designed.
